The Otherside Of Love || Sadistic Billionaire

Natalie’s POV

I felt awkward while both men stared at me blankly. What did they expect me to say?

Rafael broke the short silence, gazing at Jack furiously and demanded with gritted teeth, “Why did you tell her that I’m here?”

“I didn’t. She thinks that maybe you’re cheating on her. I swear you’re not though”, Jack said sarcastically.

I felt so bad. Why am I in this situation in the first place? I didn’t come by myself? I found myself here, and I don’t even know the reason.

I hated Rafael in this instance. He put me in this humiliating situation, yet he acts indifferent! Like if he doesn’t give a shit to all of this. He was quiet and cold, he seemed like he didn’t care that his fiance was minutes away!!

His dominore was so calm that it provoked me.

With an injured expression I couldn’t control, I stood up, grabbed my bag and walked to leave.

“Wait!” Raf said, holding my shoulders.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

I clenched my fists trying to reduce the anxiety and despair I was feeling now. I didn’t want to seem weak or broken. I didn’t want him to know about my true feelings for him.

He turned me around to face him and mumbled in a soft voice, “We have to talk. We need to clarify things. How about we meet here tonight!”

I glared deep into his eyes, and said with a clear determination in my tone, “I’ll never come back here, Raf.”

I sensed his tension, but I didn’t care. Why would I care? Did he care about my feelings, about my reputation, my embarrassing situation? No, he didn’t give a shit.

“She has almost arrived,” Jack said, rushing us.

“Would you take her home?” Rafael said in an ice tone.

My heart smashed into little pieces. I didn’t know why I felt that way?, Maybe I had a little hope!?

‘Hope of what, you stupid!? STOP DREAMING’ my mind screamed at me.

Jack grabbed me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. I didn’t look back at Rafael, but I felt his gaze on back.

We used the emergency ladder, so Debbie wouldn’t see me!

I laughed inside my heart. He had just admitted that we were married and forbade me to have sex with any man, yet now he chose his fiancee who would be between his arms now.

The way back home was deadly silent. Jack tried to talk, but I wasn’t very responsive. I just nodded and answered with one word. At the end, he gave up asking me and drove in silence.

Finally, we went home. I opened the door and was about to get out of the car when Jack mumbled in a calm voice, “If you need any help, Anastasia and I are available at any time!”

“Thank you for the ride”, I stammered with a small smile and walked away.

Once I entered from the home’s main door, Grandma and Tobi greeted me enthusiastically. I wasn’t in the mood to talk, so I nodded and went straight upstairs. I could feel their eagerness to pull details from me. I didn’t give them the chance to ask me where I spent the night though.

I put my phone in charge. I turned it on and found a lot of missed calls and DMs from Rose, my secretary.

I called her back. She reminded me of an important meeting with a client today. I was planning for this meeting for two months. I can’t let what happened earlier distract me.

[I’m on my way] I texted her.

Then, I sorted all the DMs. I really was surprised when I didn’t find any DM from Danial. Was he disappointed? I should apologize and make it up to him someday.

I changed my clothes into a tight brown skirt and a white blouse. I stared at my reflection, feeling a little indecisive. I’d never worn such a short skirt before, but it was Rose who picked it for this important meeting. I was busy organising Rafael’s engagement, so I didn’t have the time to prepare. My assistant was a very helpful person. She took care of every small detail I didn’t care about.

I stared at my reflection for one more time. I used to be ashamed of my butt size. I never wore a skirt that short.

I thought twice before I finally decided to attend the meeting wearing these clothes. I have no time to pick up another set of clothes. I got into my car and headed straight to the company.

On the way, I started thinking of why Raf was acting like that. His way of action scared me. I felt like I no longer knew him?

When I remembered the pool, I blushed. How would I face him and Jack in the future?

I still can feel his kiss on my lips. How would I forget that!! I can even sense his arms possessively around my waist.

‘You have to forget. You have to Natalie, you have to. You’re nothing to him but an orphan girl who needed his help!’ one tear ran on my cheek and I wiped it immediately.

I parked my car and headed straight to the conference hall, where I asked the secretary to set up the presentation screen for me.

The meeting will be about a plan of how we could invade the market using propaganda. By focusing on the CEO’s social life, we will grab the attention of the company’s products and services.

I didn’t know if I would be able to go with the plan that I had laid down. It requires me to be with Raf on most of his special occasions with Debbie. It would be like torture for me.

I stood before the meeting hall door. Now I feel like it was a bad idea to wear this.

But I had no solution now, so I pushed the door and got in.
